New Zealanders? As long as their arses point toward the ground, they'll never be more than our sponging cousins. In truth though, we in Oz take the piss big time when it comes to the Kiwis, but we also know that if we find ourselves in a tight spot, you can depend on them. Mad ****ers who'll go the whole nine yards when it comes to a brawl. People who've served with them in the armed forces swear by them.
I used to work with a crew of Kiwis on demolition sites in London. I can confirm that they are all mental at work and at play. The lager consumption of this lot was legendary, as was their capacity for dirty and dangerous graft.
I worked with a Kiwi, nice bloke, bit tight, total health freak - his lunch would consist of a handful of berries and some liquidised wheat seedlings which he grew himself.
I had the misfortune to get arrested in the Tunnel in Glasgow for being a suspected drug dealer. I was'nt and the charges were dropped but sadly for me I had been on a sicky so they sacked me for that.
Seems a bit harsh to sack you for that Dev. Were you a bit of a maverick in general, a loose cannon perhaps?
